[10.0] "this was my first indie show, and what a show it was. I was unfamiliar with 80% of the people on the card and that didn't matter. This show was awesome, and now I can't get enough of DPW. Match of the night was definitely Kevin Blackwood v Titus Alexander. They're both so incredibly talented. I'm also happy I got to see Jake something before he was injured. Also, the Bluey chants for Kylie Rae was some of the most fun I think I have had as an audience member at a wrestling show. Everyone just having a good time at a wrestling show is bound to make me feel much more fondly of the show."
[7.0] "A pretty good first show of 2025 from DPW for me, although I think the similar feel of the matches to eachother hampers it a little, and some of the higher card matches didn't quite deliver. The good stuff was the opener, the women's match and Blackwood/Alexander. Priest/Manders felt more like a teaser and that they were holding stuff back for a future clash against eachother. The tag match probably went too long and having missed what I think would have been a great finish, got progressively worse as it dragged on, culminating in a botched finish with them either going for a draw or down to the last few seconds finish and were early. This could have been due to an injury to Everett, but I'm not sure, a shame either way though. The National title match was good but felt more like an exhibition match rather than a title match. And finally the World's title match felt short on constant action and moments that were plentiful in earlier matches on the show."
[5.0] "My first time watching DEADLOCK Pro-Wrestling and I have to say, this was mediocre. I can see it's appeal but it's very indiefied and the production quality sucks (could barely hear the commentary due to the crowd), the lighting doesn't highlight anything in the building, the crowd is way too close to the ring, there's barely a ramp and the staging is below generic. The matches weren't up to much either. I think most of them went too long for what they were and meandered a bit. They have some decent talent on their show though. I don't know if I'll be watching this again."
[7.0] "Another solid show for DPW to start off 2025. Pleasantly surprised to see Queen Aminata on the show in a decent contest against Kylie Rae. Match of the night defs goes to Manders and Priest (though coming out to Into the Void has to be a flavour fail, right? lol.) Main Event was alright, but felt a bit repetitive in a couple spots. Overall a good night."
[7.0] "An excellent show, as expected and no surprise there. DPW delivers once again! Their match writing and angles are fantastic. Can't wait to see the next show!"
